Looks like Nintendo has slipped up ahead of either Ubisoft’s or their own E3 presentation and listed the next entry in the Mario + Rabbids series on their website early. Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is the title, and looks to be more of the same lite-strategy gameplay as its predecessor.
Nintendo’s web listing for the game reads:
“Team up with Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Rabbid Peach, Rabbid Luigi, and their friends on a galactic journey to defeat a malevolent entity and save your Spark companions. Explore planets throughout the galaxy as you uncover mysterious secrets and compelling quests!
- Build your dream team with three heroes from an eclectic roster of nine.
- Take down all new bosses, along with some familiar enemies throughout the galaxy.
- Rescue the adorable Sparks throughout the galaxy, who provide distinct powers that will help you in battle.
- Unleash your heroes’ skills but be strategic as you dash your enemies, team jump on your allies, and hide behind covers.”
The game looks to be releasing in 2022, but little other information is available at this stage. It’s safe to assume that we’ll learn more in the coming days. In the meantime, have a gander at the below screenshots that are also on the Nintendo web page:
